2027: Chairman UMAPO tips Senator Lawan as Buni’s successor in Yobe
By: Yahaya Wakili
The Chairman of the of the United Marketers Association Potiskum local government and its environs (UMAPO), Alhaji Nasiru Mato, has said that Senator Ahmed Ibrahim Lawan, Ph.D., GCON, Sardaunan Bade, is supposed to be the governor of Yobe State in 2027.
Alhaji Mato said Sardaunan Bade is unparalleled in Yobe history, so if he becomes the governor of Yobe State in 2027, I believe he would approach so many things in the state.
The chairman disclosed this to reporters in his office. He said now is the time to develop Yobe State, to empower the people of Yobe, to empower businessmen, farmers, pastoralists, and even transporters, as well as to upgrade the dignity of our state.
He pointed out that now is the time for Yobe State to need people like Sardaunan Bade who will bring development to the state, and he has all the requirements and is also capable of governing the state because he did a lot of things in his zone and we saw it.
“Since Nigerian democracy was restored in 1999, no federally elected politician in the whole Northeast region, not even Yobe State, has ever had the wealth, expertise, connections, or experience that Senator Ahmed Ibrahim Lawan possesses.” Mato said.
According to him, the exceptional work of the distinguished President of the 9th Senate, Senator Ahmed Ibrahim Lawan, is unmatched in Yobe state history, so if he becomes the governor of Yobe state in 2027, inshallah, he will develop the whole Yobe state within the shortest time.
Speaking on the allegations, Senator Ahmed Lawan didn’t extend his empowerment to other zones in the state. Mato said first of all, people should know the position of the Senate President. The Senate President seat is not for Yobe State; it is a seat for all Nigerians.
“Senator Ahmed Ibrahim Lawan, come there under his constituency; nobody from zone A or zone B come and vote for him; only the people from his constituency, which is zone C, come and vote for him and take him to the National Assembly.
The position of the Senate President is for the whole country, not Yobe State; he is just the leader of all senators who come from various constituencies across the country.
“It has become evident that Senator Ahmed Ibrahim Lawan, Ph.D., GCON, Sardaunan Bade, is devoted to significant empowerment, not just lip service. So if given the chance, I am confident he will duplicate this exceptional accomplishment throughout the state by the grace of God,” he added.
According to Mato, the people of Yobe state should go back and think, since the creation of the state, just like preaching to people who hear the preaching he understands, and who didn’t hear the preaching, let him go and meet Ulamas and translate to him.
“Since the creation of the state, if we get development, people know; if we don’t get development, people know; and now everybody knows the situation we are in and the cost of living. Therefore, it is time to look for a good leader who can deliver, who can rescue the state from its present situation, and who can help the people and revive the economy of the state.” The UMAPO chairman said.
